Chapter 1298 As Zephyr spoke, Susan’s families exchanged knowing smiles, their faces lighting up with such joy that it seemed as if beams of happiness might burst from their eyes.

Susan, whose heart had been seething with anger moments before, felt a wave of calm wash over her at Zephyr's words. She couldn't help but crack a smile. That smile, however, pulled at her tender cheeks, and she winced with the sting.

She quickly covered her face with her hands.

Lucy was the first to catch on. With a flattering smile, she said to Zephyr, “Our dear Susan is utterly devoted to Mr. Lysander. If she could stay by his side, she'd guard him day and night without a second’s hesitation. Even if it meant risking her own life, she wouldn't flinch.” Lucy saw an opportunity and seized it, hoping to position Susan closer to Lysander. If Susan could snag the role of Lysander’s lady, the doors to fortune could swing wide open for them.

Bruce chimed in, “Absolutely, Susan was just telling us how she can’t bear the thought of Lysander in danger without someone by his side. She wishes she could be with him around the clock.” The ambitions of the Bruce family were laid bare for everyone to see.

Should Susan find her place beside Lysander, what need would her family have to worry about money again? Bruce had gambled away a lifetof savings in the stock market, thanks to Lucy’sill-advised trading. He'd been like a headless fly ever since, buzzing around in cobant agitation without direction.

He'd called Thalassa several times, demanding money, but was refused every time.

He no longer had any control over Thalassa and needed to prop up Susan to keep the cash flowing. After all, she was still his flesh and blood.

Thalassa had long known about Susan’s designs on becoming Lysander’s woman and the lengths to which she would go for that. There had been that incident with the drugged wine, hoping to seduce him in his vulnerable state.

Now, she was leveraging her role in saving Lysander to seek a place by his side.

Watching the eager faces of the family, Thalassa sneered inwardly with disdain.

Her gaze inadvertently drifted to Lysander, who stood just a step outside the ward. Their eyes met, his impenetrable gaze seeming to pierce through her.

The intensity of his stare caused Thalassa’s heart to skip, and she quickly looked away.

Lysander’s deep eyes clouded with annoyance as he saw Thalassa’s drifted gaze.

“You've been kind,” Zephyr said, “but Lysander doesn’t need a woman right now. Wouldn't want his future wife getting jealous. The Sinclair family has already taken care of the hospital bills, so there's no need for you to worry.” Still wincing from the pain in his back, Ethan interjected, “Zephyr, they're lying. Ms. Everhart chere to thank Susan for saving Lysander, but they've been hostile from the moment she arrived. They even insulted her, which is why she lashed out-it wasn’t as they said.” He couldn’t stand by and watch Bruce’s family slander Thalassa. He had brought her here to clear up the rumors that she was out to harm Lysander, not to fuel them further.

After all, he was telling the truth.

Upon hearing this, Susan quickly interjected, “Zephyr, everything | said was true. Mr. Ethan may be taking Ms.

Everhart’s side because they're close, that’s why he’s defending her.” With that statement, Susan cast another shadow on Thalassa’s character, implying she was fickle and flirtatious- supposedly Lysander’'s woman, yet entangled with Ethan.

Ethan snapped, “Susan, what nonsense are you talking about!” Susan adopted a look of wounded innocence, tears welling up in her eyes as if she were the victim of sgrave injustice, “Zephyr, Mr. Ethan is right, my words were all lies...” Her face wore the mask of someone oppressed and forced into admitting unfounded accusation.
